The deep pink, pale pink, and dusty pink colors in this set lend themselves to all sorts of fantastic creations. Pleasantly soft and plush, bendable into almost any shape, and just plain fun to play with, colored pipe cleaners (known to the crafting world as chenille stems) are ideal for sculpting, making toys, twisting into dress-up accessories, and keeping handy for rainy day activities. This assortment contains three dozen stems—three each of three colors in four different thicknesses: 3 mm, 6 mm, 9 mm, and 10 mm "bumpy" stems—along with step-by-step instructions for a craft project. Because the bendable center of a chenille stem is thin wire, they can be somewhat pointy—we recommend close adult supervision for youngsters under 8. (Not suitable for children under 3.)
